Default Is a prefect dizzy worth trying?

I have a few hills on the only highway in and out of my place.

The original motor does not have much power.

Tuning is good...timing and mixture.

Have not done a compression check.

Never have driven another model A to compare.

A prefect dizzy is on ebay ATM, is it worth fitting to try?

Or does it do the same job when on constant revs/speed uphill pulling as the manual lever would do?

I presume it has better cam lobes for different dwell as well.

I know it will save manual lever timing when chugging around the streets, but what about constant pulling?

I would rather save the money and keep it original if the prefect one won't give me any more pulling power.
